The victim has been identified as Shiny Kiran K, a resident of Ulsoor, and a student of a private pre-university college. The tragedy occurred at around 8:30 p.m. on Thursday on Old Madras road in Indiranagar Traffic police station limits.

According to an eye witness who has lodged a complaint the biker was performing wheelies with Shiny riding pillion. While they were passing Gopalan Mall in front of RMZ, he lost control of the speeding bike and she fell down.

A speeding Canter which was coming behind ran over her. The biker, who escaped with minor injuries, fled on his bike. The locals rushed Shiny to a nearby hospital where she was declared brought dead.

"The biker did not stop the vehicle when the girl fell on the road and the Canter driver also escaped. Traffic came to a halt for some time and the Traffic police who rushed to the spot cleared the way. The CCTV camera in a nearby mall may have captured the tragic incident," an eye witness said.

Indiranagar Traffic police have launched a hunt for the biker. They said they have got the CCTV footage to identity him.

In an effort to prevent road accidents in the cyber city, the Bengaluru police recently said they would crack down on two-wheeler riders who perform dangerous stunts in public areas and on arterial roads.

Bengaluru, Feb 21: A young woman in Bengaluru was detained today for holding a placard saying ''Free Kashmir'' at a demonstration in the city to protest against the arrest of college student Amulya Leona who had raised pro-Pakistan slogans at an anti-CAA rally a day ago.

The arrested has been identified as Ardra Narayan, a 20-year-old student of an engineering college at Malleshwaram in the city's western suburb.

"Ardra Narayan is being questioned at the Silver Jubilee Park police station after she was whisked away from the spot and detained for holding the placard with ''Free Kashmir'' written on it," Bengaluru Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao said.

On a complaint by Sri Ram Sena activists, who were protesting against Amulya at the venue, the police booked a suo moto case against Ardra under sections 153A and 153B of the IPC (Indian Penal Code) for disturbing peace and harmony.

The placard also displayed ''Give Us Liberation'' and ''Freedom from India'', a Sri Ram Sena activist alleged.

The development comes a day after Amulya, 19, was arrested under section 124A of the IPC for sedition and jailed for 14 days for allegedly shouting "Pakistan Zindabad" at the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) rally at Freedom Park in the city centre on Thursday.

"We are trying to ascertain if there is any connection between Amuly and Ardra though she was alone at the spot holding the placard," Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) R. Chandrashekar told news agency.
